http://www.nucleusinc.com/medical-animation This 3D medical animation describes PCOS, polycystic ovary (ovarian) syndrome. The animation begins with the normal anatomy and physiology of the ovaries, including the effects of certain hormones on the ovaries during the menstrual cycle. Then, what is known about the pathophysiology of PCOS is shown, including abnormal amounts of specific hormones and how they cause certain symptoms, such as infertility, acne, and abnormal hair growth. Treatments for PCOS are described, including hormonal birth control, anti-androgens, diabetes and fertility medications, and laparoscopic ovarian drilling.

  • Excellent video and animation!... But can you publish animations in Spanish? Or Subtituled in Spanish? I don´t speak english very well.

  • @TwiParamore1 Thanks for your comment. If you visit our channel, you will see one of our Playlists is called "Animaciones médicas en Español". You can also find it by conducting a search on YouTube.

  • Absolutely stupendous, well-produce, eloquently designed, and medically-accurate presentation, Nucleus!

    Do you have any plans for German dubbing?

  • @mammatirs85 oh and funny but before i came on here today and read your message i managed to book an oppointment on wednesday morning to get my scan results :) so i will be thinking of you you then hun xxx

  • @NkTakZ awww hun i'm glad that ur going 2 get it sorted it has been a terrible time 4 me and i can't belive a qualified doctor told me that it was normal 2 not have periods 4 8 years...after having my son!!!i'm really happy that i have inspired you 2 sort it out and i hope that everything goes well for you hun let me know what they say to you :)

  • @NkTakZ Thank you for sharing your story! I hope you inspire others to face their fears and make great health decisions like you have. Good luck and please keep us updated!

  • @mammatirs85 Thanks for the message. When I was told I had PCOS, they said 'you won't have any kids' and after that, I always said I never want kids. Even though I'm glad that I'm not alone, I still feel alone (not sure if this makes sense). After getting your message, I've finally sucked up the courage to sort it out lol. I have a docs appt on Wed to begin this journey. Good luck to you!!

  • @NkTakZ i totally agree with you for 8 years now i haven't had a period and me and my husband would like another child but 8 years with no period makes it really hard for that to happen my old doctor kept telling me that is was normal to not have a period for that amount of time!!! neddless to say i changed doctors and now i am waiting scan results and hopefully getting things sorted out xx

  • thanks for the video its great i have just been diagnosed with this and it helped me understand it more then i did when the doc tried to explain it to me

  • thank u so much... i have been suffering from PCOD since i was 15, 7 years down the line, i still never understood. i finally understand what is going on in my body!

    My doctor had prescribed birth control pills, however, they are making me suffer hair loss at an alarming rate. is there any explanation to this?
